Trump has reaffirmed the summit with DPRK leader Kim Jong Un is still on and said the DPRK will get "strong protection" if Kim agrees to denuclearize. He also said he would not seek to implement the so-called "Libya model" after Kim cited the example of former Libyan leader when talking about Pyongyang's concerns about giving up its nuclear program.  

DONALD TRUMP US PRESIDENT "Well the Libyan model isn't a model we have at all when we're thinking of North Korea. In Libya, we decimated that country. That country was decimated. There was no deal to keep Kadhafi. The Libyan model that was mentioned was a much different deal. This would be with Kim Jong Un something that he'd be there, he'd be in his country, he'd be running this country. His country would be very rich. His people are tremendously industrious."
